We had our ace ready for Game Six. We were playing before a packed house on our home field, and we were coming off an inspiring Game Five win by Sam.

If anybody could take this Series to seven games, it would be Shiggie. The tall Japanese lefty fireballer had won 17 games for us that year, against only 7 losses. There was nobody I'd have rather seen take the mound for the Orioles in a crucial game.

If there was a game seven, we'd be on shakier ground. But we had Rob Murray, who'd beaten the Cards for us once already, and he had looked damned good doing it. Rob wasn't the pitcher Shiggie was, but he'd do.

If we could just get to him.

The Cardinals started their old timer, Matt Morris, still effective now, in his middle thirties, after a distinguished career as a starter. He was a right-hander with lots of stuff. He'd been a 20-game winner again this season.

Both clubs had scored a lot of runs in the Series, but this time, both were getting shut down by the pitching. Morris had a no-hitter through four, and Shiggie had struggled a little more, but hadn't let anybody past second base.

In the fifth, we loaded the bases against Morris with only one out -- his no-hitter quickly forgotten now. But we didn't score.

In the eighth, Shiggie was still going strong, but with only one out, Pujols got a double in the gap and Willard Everett, our right fielder, tried to pick it up three times at the fence before finally grasping it and throwing it in to the cutoff man.

Pujols took advantage and ended up on third. He came in on a sacrifice fly for the only run of the game to that point.

We did nothing in the eighth, and Shiggie set them down in order in the ninth.

It was time for some heroics, or the Series was over. Morris had been nearly unhittable, but damned if Tony La Russa, the Cardinals' manager, didn't pull him anyway, in favor of their strong young closer, Nathan Washington.

We needed two for a walk-off win, and we got just one. Brian Roberts coaxed a lazy fly ball over the high right field wall into the SRO section. It wasn't exactly Ruthian, but it counted for one run.

That's all we could get, but at least we'd taken them into extra innings.

I was squirming on the bench by the time we'd reached the 13th inning. I'd seen two different situations arise where Paul could have really used my help. But there wasn't any way. After the tenth inning, Paul had finally pulled Shiggie out of the game and given the ball to our closer, Freddie Gonzalez.

Freddie held them hitless for two innings and then gave way in the 13th to Ernie Borowski, a starter, pitching on short rest. Borowski had been our losing pitcher in Game Four.

Ernie gave up a homer to Scott Rolen, making it 2-1 Cards.

In our half of the inning, Melvin Mora doubled and stole third, and came in on a sac fly. It was 2-2, and we were still alive.

If anybody there in the stands that day had left early, it wasn't evident. The Oriole fans were pleading for a win.

But In the 14th, Pujols hit an opposite-field homer with a man on, and the place got very quiet.

With nobody out, Cary Zane got a pinch-hit triple in our half of the 14th. The whole place was in a frenzy, but our guys just couldn't make it happen, and Zane died on third.

It was over. We'd lost the World Series, four games to two.

There were lots of post-mortems. The clubhouse was packed with reporters and TV cameras and practically every Oriole player was being interviewed by somebody. It was pretty much impossible for anyone to take a shower in that melee, even if the assorted females milling around the lockers weren't considered an adequate deterrent to nudity.

I was in uniform, but not in much need of a shower, so I changed into civvies as unobtrusively as possible and tried to edge out the door.

A Baltimore Sun reporter snagged me, though, before I could get out of the room, and asked if I'd answer a few.

"What are you going to do about the injury?" he asked.

"I'm going down to Birmingham, let Dr. Andrews have a look, see what he says."

"You're what, now, Alex? Thirty-three, right? --Can you come back, if you need the Tommy John surgery?"

"I don't know," I said, honestly enough. "Maybe it'll turn out to be a little less serious. Maybe I'll get good news. I'll just have to wait and see."

Pauline The Slut Part 32 Therese Humiliates Pau

Therese looked at the scene before her. Her father and brother naked, her grandfather’s cock sticking out of his trousers and her grandmother eating her mother’s cunt, both of us naked. Beth with the camera, filming. “God, the slut is only in the door and she’s gone sex mad.” she said referring to me. She went and sat on the arm of her father’s chair putting her arm around him and kissing him on the cheek. My father was now hard again. He pushed my mother out of the way and started to fuck me...

Worlds ApartChapter 6 Homecoming

Jamie awoke the next morning feeling energized, as though someone was running an electrical current through his body. How long had it been since he had felt this way? Excited, hopeful, like all of the color was bleeding back into his grey world. He didn’t bother with breakfast, taking a quick shower, and getting dressed. He considered wearing something presentable but eventually decided that Liz wouldn’t care, settling on a jacket and sweatpants. It was a brisk morning, so he decided to jog...

My niece Susan is now 38-year's old. I have watched her and her two sisters growing up from infancy to womanhood. Although I was always somewhat of a moral degenerate I never tried anything with any of the three girls; all of who were extremely pretty and big breasted. Susan was the oldest. She also was both the tallest and the most slender. Until she married and had three kids of her own she actually was a skinny girl. The only flesh on her were her breasts, which were full. Over the years...

Worlds Oldest RookieChapter 3 Alex and the Boosters

We had a game that night against Toronto, but the civic club's meeting was at high noon, and my talk was only supposed to run a half-hour or less, so there was no conflict. As requested, I met with Paul Warren's wife, Orlie, a half-hour before the luncheon at the Sheraton in downtown Baltimore. Orlie Martinez Warren was a tiny, forty-something dark-haired beauty who'd kept her figure and had a dazzling smile. She thanked me profusely for filling in for Brian Roberts on short notice, and...

The GodgranddaughterChapter 5 The Oldest Profession Updated

As I mentioned, my home and my mother’s workplace, as my sexual journey began, were in a suburb once considered “in the mountains”, a place for resorts. Our place had been one of the small resorts. A number of the larger ones had become assisted living communities. How can prostitution be the oldest profession? How would the customers have earned the fees? For a given engagement in the sex industry, we called the project/engagement leader the producer. A senior producer might manage...

‘It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.’ That was the line that Jamie’s father had fed him, followed by a lecture about how he shouldn’t mope and how he needed to come out of his room because he was missing practice. Everyone treated their relationship like puppy love, a phase that Jamie would grow out of, as though the connection that he and Liz had shared hadn’t been genuine. It made him bitter and angry on top of being heartbroken by Liz’s absence. He had...

Theresa lay on her bed under Erica's watchful eyes. She felt miserable. She'd failed her master, not once, but repeatedly. He'd done so much to please her, and all she'd done in return was anger him. She should have known better than to strike Jane, no matter the provocation. Master would defend himself as he saw fit; it wasn't the place of a would-be slave to strike a free woman, to usurp Master's right to do so if he wished, or to ignore the comment as beneath notice. Her heart was...

Jillian had been divorced for 3 years now and she was finally feeling almost normal as a woman once again. Getting out with Theresa each week had helped in that cause. Luckily the alimony she received from her...

Theresa quickened her pace as she neared her home. Almost running now, she reached her block panting hard, the images of the day’s events gathering like a rain cloud in her mind. The day had started innocently enough. Going to school at seven, reporting for flag rising, the usual. But there was where the similarities stopped. Returning to class, Theresa was unable to concentrate. Glancing sideways, she found herself staring at the crotch of her classmate. At the same time, she was shocked to...

The next day, Theresa was at our door at eight am. I answered the door. She walked in. "Where's Pyx?" she asked urgently. "She's fixing breakfast. And you're still dressed." The nun took off her habit, hastily. All her sense of modesty around me was gone. "Vonda can help you with your grooming." Theresa looked past me. "No. I'm fine." "Are you sure? I'll inspect you, right now. If you are found wanting I WILL punish you." This made her pause. "Maybe, Vonda should take a...

I arrived about 1.30pm. It was late summer, it was a glorious day, very warm and I suggested that she get changed. ‘How do you want me to look?’ she asked. I told her what to wear and twenty minutes later she came back down stairs and stood in front of me. I sat back and checked she had dressed as asked. Normally, Theresa would be wearing a smart jacket and blouse and either a knee length skirt or Trousers. Today was different. She had put on a light blue, short summer dress that buttoned down...

I had my towel next to me all ready to catch the load and was reading about a male real estate agent that was fucking two lesbian clients in a prospective house. It was a very well written piece (though not exactly a believable one) and I was heading for the final push when a loud bang against my window...

Cousin Billy and Theresa

It was February or March in Connecticut, and colder than anything I could ever remember before that. All the kids were home from school, maybe it was Easter vacation or something, and we were running around outside, trying to keep ourselves warm.

It was kind of a housing project where we lived, the rent was cheap, and there was a long waiting list for families to get in. My Uncle Bill and Aunt Margaret lived right...

Maria Theresa’s problem was she didn’t feel old....

Theresa

My mother in law, Theresa, lived in another state. She was a beautiful lady with a classic figure; wide hips and busty, what Marilyn Monroe might look like at 55 with auburn hair. I knew she was pretty wild in her younger days, but hadn’t had a steady man in her life for a while. Theresa ran into some financial problems after losing her job, so we convinced her to come and live with us. It was cheaper to move her across the country than to “loan” her a bunch of money. She rented a truck, and...

I have always loved old women. When I was young all of my friends were into girls more or less their own age. Once in a while, a friend of mine would find a mother hot but nobody was into old women. Only I was. And I mean old, women in their sixties, which was very old for a teenager. My own grandmother was not even that old at the time. I loved Sunday church because I could oogle the old ladies. At home I would fantasize getting bathed by them and spying on them to get a glimpse of their...

Life in the Orioles' spring training camp was a big improvement over my experience in the last couple of years.

Worlds Oldest RookieChapter 5 I Just Met a Girl Named Maria

We kept winning all through May, and were in first place on the first of June. We had just arrived in Seattle at the beginning of a nine-games-in-ten-days, three-cities road trip. The Orioles had won four in a row at home before heading west. All three clubs we'd meet on this run -- Seattle, Oakland and the Angels of Lost Anaheim (or whatever the hell they were calling themselves this year) -- were tough. All three clubs were over .500 for the year and ready to make a try at bringing us...

"Yeah, I don't know how you manage to get by," she said, smiling. Maria was a baseball brat. She knew what the minimum salary for...

Worlds Oldest RookieChapter 7 Orlie and Maria

The picnic was scheduled for a weeknight, because the team always had a game to play on weekend nights. As usual, the event was well-attended. Paul Warren had worried, in the first year or two after establishing this little tradition, that players would somehow feel compelled to show up. He always made it as clear as he possibly could to everyone that they could come, or not, as they chose. Somewhat to his surprise, year after year, virtually everyone he invited showed up. At least, everyone...

Worlds Oldest RookieChapter 8 Keeping My Distance

We wrapped up the home stand, still winning, and were on the road again by late Thursday. I hadn't seen Maria since picnic night, three days earlier. That had been deliberate on my part. If you don't know what to do with a girl, the best thing to do with her is nothing. We had the White Sox, then the Twins, and then Detroit before we would be back in Baltimore for a lengthy series of games at home before the All-Star break. I hadn't gotten the call to pitch in several days, but it didn't...

Or maybe with Maria and three of her college chums. But the lights didn't come on. Maybe she'd fallen asleep. Then I heard her disembodied voice from some...

"Half Charlize Theron, half Catherine Zeta Jones," Maria explained. "How many women do you know named "Charlize?" I...

Worlds Oldest RookieChapter 11 Its the Real Thing

It was after three in the morning when I finally unlocked the door to my ratty little apartment and stepped inside. I was weary from the long road trip, that night's long night game, the long flight back to Baltimore, and the long commute into town from the airport. I considered just dropping off to sleep in the guest bedroom and not waking Maria until morning. Or maybe she had never actually made it over. Maybe my bed was just waiting for the Lone Ranger, as usual. But, no. The kitchen...

Worlds Oldest RookieChapter 12 Walking on Eggs

We had the Oakland A's in town for the opening of our home stand that night, and Shiggie Nomura, our ace lefty starter, held them hitless for six full innings. But in the seventh, Shiggie suddenly lost it and damned if the A's didn't hit him up for back-to-back homers! The bases were empty for both of them, so we were still up 3-2, but there was nobody out, and Paul called the bullpen and got Gene Holtz and me both up-and-throwing real quick. Shiggie walked the next two hitters, one of...

Worlds Oldest RookieChapter 13 Whoops

We were doing very well indeed -- both on the field and off, as August wore on.

Maria stoutly denied that anything we had done was wrong, or that anything we had done suggested that we didn't have good sense. "Did Paul say anything to you?" I asked. "He said he was very disappointed in me," she said. That brought on...

Worlds Oldest RookieChapter 15 Our Friendly Neighbors

Finally Paul found his voice. "You two -- want to get married?" "Yes!" Maria said. "Yes, sir," I said. "But -- you're just a..." "No, Daddy, I'm not just a kid!" Maria responded vehemently. In November of this year, less than two months from now, I will be twenty years old!" "I think that's wonderful!" Orlie said. "Do you have a ring?" "I was waiting to see if I left here alive, first," I said, "before getting one." "What about school?" Paul said. "I'll...
